IHG has comes out with its Fall Promo, Accelerate, for stays between September 1 and December 31. Registration is required to see your targeted offer. I don't stay in hotels much, so hotel promotions only catch my eye–and make an appearance on MileValue–when you can earn rewards worth more than the price of the hotel rooms you need to book to earn the rewards. This promotion meets that threshold of offering greater than 100% back–if you were targeted for one of the better offers.
Free Nights Offer
New members, or in some cases, inactive members are being offered one free night at any IHG property after two paid stays at any IHG property and a second free night after two more paid stays. That offers amazing opportunities for "winning" the promotion. Two cheap one-night stays at properties under $100 per night could yield a free night at the $400-per-night InterContinental Hong Kong or the $1,000 per night Intercontinental Bora Bora.
If you get the free nights promo, it is a no-brainer. Earn the two free nights with four real stays if you can. If you don't have any upcoming uses for hotels, mattress run (book hotels purely for the sake of earning rewards) four times for one night stays at nearby cheap IHG properties in the Candlewood Suites, Staybridge Suites, and Holiday Inn Express brands.
Points Offer
Old members, like me, are getting game-ified promotions that offer points for completing certain tasks like booking a certain number of stays, booking a certain number of stays at certain IHG chains, staying a certain number of nights, staying weekends, or opening the IHG credit card.
Here is my offer, for 50,000 total points:
To get all 50,000 points, I'd need to:
- stay 7 nights
- on at least two separate stays at Holiday Inns
- at least one of which was a two-night weekend stay
- plus open their credit card
All that is definitely not worth doing just for 50,000 points, which I'd value at about $250.
Some folks have easier offers, and some folks are being offered 150,000 points, so check your targeted promotion here.
Do the math to see if changing your behavior to earn the points is worth it. Add up the extra cost of your hotel stays from changing your behavior (that would be the total cost of the stay if you do a pure mattress run and have no use for the room) and add up the value of the points earned. If the points are worth more than they cost, jump on the promotion.
Terms and Conditions
Here is the fine print of the offer. Understand it before jumping in.
You must be an IHG® Rewards Club member and must register your member number in advance to participate in "Accelerate" ("Promotion"). Upon Registration, members will be presented with the opportunity to earn at least 50,000 bonus points upon completion of all offers presented.

Complete College America enlists other groups in spelling out its call for immediate and fundamental changes to remedial education.
Remediation isn't working, but it's not all that discouraging to students and might serve other purposes, a study finds -- such as helping colleges cope with overenrolled regular courses.
Complete College America wants to abolish remedial courses, but some say its policy push is not always backed by research and its rhetoric can be unfair to community colleges.
Connecticut lawmakers want to eliminate all non-credit remedial courses. While a compromise is likely to emerge, the state's approach is seen as visionary by some, foolish by others.
Newark's Essex County College tried adaptive learning software to improve remedial math success rates. It hasn't worked, as students and faculty have struggled with the "self-regulated" approach to learning.
Florida is one of several states where legislatures are exploring dramatic approaches to reforming developmental (remedial) education.
A high percentage of students who enroll at the 28 state colleges (formerly the community colleges) in the Florida College System have remedial needs, and only a small fraction of those students actually earn college credentials.
To try to combat this problem, the state's Legislature in 2013 passed a new law mandating that the 28 state colleges provide developmental education that is more tailored to the needs of students. As reported earlier by Inside Higher Ed, the policy gives students much more flexibility in terms of whether they participate in developmental education and what options they choose if they do decide to participate.
Some concerns have emerged since the Florida reform was implemented in the fall of 2014. For example, The Chronicle of Higher Education described "headaches" such as a drastic decline in students enrolling in developmental education courses, challenges faculty members face and other issues regarding student decisions and choices.
It's clear that the state's developmental policy reform could have a long-lasting influence on student success in Florida and beyond. The Florida reform would be particularly relevant if the proposal of two years of free community college by President Obama ever becomes a reality. To learn more about it, the Center for Postsecondary Success (CPS) at Florida State University has been conducting a comprehensive evaluation of the implementation and effects of the policy.
The Florida Experiment
The law drastically changes the placement and instructional practices in developmental education. It prohibits requiring placement testing or developmental education for students who entered ninth grade in a Florida public school in the 2003-2004 school year and after, provided the student earned a standard high school diploma. The law also exempts active-duty members of the military from required placement testing and developmental coursework. It does, however, allow exempted students to choose to be tested and/or to take developmental education once advised of their options.
Students now have several new options in terms of developmental education delivery methods that are designed to move them quickly into college credit, using corequisite instruction, modules and tutoring. The new strategies include: (1) modularized instruction that is customized and targeted to address specific skills gaps; (2) compressed course structures that accelerate student progression from developmental instruction to college-level coursework; (3) contextualized developmental instruction that is related to metamajors (a collection of programs of study or academic discipline groupings that share common foundational skills); and (4) corequisite developmental instruction or tutoring that supplements credit instruction while a student is concurrently enrolled in a credit-bearing course.
The legislation does not mandate the specifics around each option and therefore allows the individual campuses in the system some flexibility in regard to the form and delivery of each option.
Challenges and Opportunities
The reform strategies underway are sweeping.
Because a key intent of the reform is to provide greater flexibility in determining who needs to take developmental education courses, it is not surprising to observe a sizable drop-off in students enrolling in them. The drop-off itself may not necessarily become a concern for some students, but we will need to closely monitor those who choose not to opt in to developmental education programs to determine their outcomes compared to those who did.
Research has indicated that developmental education may not be that helpful for borderline students, thus suggesting flexible placement may increase student success by not holding back students just shy of the cut score. However, a large number of students who would have scored far below traditional cutoff scores and instead opt in to college-level courses may present new and difficult challenges to institutions and instructors, and may also jeopardize students' chances of succeeding in college. Such a scenario could be compounded depending on how students of different backgrounds make decisions.
While some perceive the increased student choice to be positive, others question whether developmental education students have the preparation and wisdom to make informed choices about course options. Students, though, generally appreciate the increased choice provided by the legislation but questioned whether other students would always make the appropriate decisions. Colleges and universities have ramped up advising and student support services, which could be key to student success and the reform as a whole. Advising students to make the "good" choice, and students following the advice properly, will be critical to student success in this new policy environment. Meanwhile, providing the necessary support to students along the way is important to sustain student success.
With greater flexibility in placement, the developmental education reform could alter the composition of classrooms across college campuses, possibly also shaping the structure and culture of teaching and learning on campus due to the wider range of student academic preparation in both developmental and college-level classes. The voices of faculty have indicated this is the case. A promising sign is that faculty members are designing customized instruction tailored to students based on their assessment of student preparation. This is consistent with the substantial literature on effective teaching and learning by meeting the needs of learners. Of course, this customization increases the work of faculty members, but if there is a way to support faculty adaptation to the new classroom reality, student success may be well in reach.
In anticipation of both student and faculty concerns, most campuses planned to increase the student support services they provide. A content analysis of the 28 implementation plans indicated that the colleges planned to ramp up advising as well as extensive training and professional development for front-line personnel. In addition, support services such as tutoring and success courses are widely considered in colleges' implementation plans.
An earlier survey of college administrators also indicated a whole-campus approach in implementing the new policy. There is a fairly wide agreement that the reform reflects a spirit of innovation and offers an opportunity to solve an old problem in new ways, and colleges mobilized to respond to the new law and increased intra-institutional collaboration in developing strategies. Each campus has an implementation team that includes the key constituents on campus so that perspectives from all can be shared and considered.
Learning From the Experiences
The Florida experiment is a state response to a persistent problem. It marks a drastic departure from the traditional developmental education model that has not been working well. The "headaches" reported in The Chronicle from the early stage of implementation are not unexpected. However, the issues raised should not be ignored. In fact, we should keep close eyes on those issues and student outcomes.
The law allows institutions to be responsive to their individual student populations. But because there are variations in institutional reality based on student characteristics, infrastructure and previous experiences with developmental education, some colleges may be ahead of the game while others may be struggling to catch up, resulting in different reactions to the reform. While some colleges embrace it, others may have some reservations. The state and other interested parties should provide assistance to help struggling colleges to get up to speed.
The success of the reform depends on a multitude of players and factors. It depends on students to make the right decisions for themselves; it depends on practitioners and administrators to successfully rally the troops on the ground to implement the critical components called for by the new law; it depends on faculty members to deliver courses that meet student needs; it depends on advisers to effectively advise students and support services staff members to provide timely and needed support to the students along the way; it also depends on policy makers to create favorable policy environments for those on the ground to do the work at the best of their expertise and capacity.
Moving Forward
The bold reform strategies in developmental education in Florida could blaze a new trail, or offer states valuable lessons. It is easy to point fingers to K-12 education for the lack of preparation of college students. While it is important to continue to improve the quality of K-12 education for all students, it is also important to consider the ways the higher education system can improve student success. Given the nature of the reform and the multiplicity of issues, strong and sustainable leadership at both the state and campus level is required in order for the reform to stand a chance of delivering results. At least six steps appear to be warranted to determine whether such a broad reform is capable of achieving its intended outcome.
First, as for any policy change, it will take time to see results. Is there willingness to wait for a period of time to see the impacts of the current policy changes on student success, given the likely pressures from various sources? If not, we may never know whether such a reform is able to deliver.
Second, to assess the impact of the reform on students and continuously improve the policy, there is a need for credible evidence. The research community needs to contribute to the conversation by conducting valid research to understand the perspectives from all concerned and affected, and assess the impact of the new policy on outcomes related to student success.
Third, practitioners and administrators need to be open-minded and provide feedback on what works and what may be needed on the ground. On the one hand, they need to challenge conventional practices that have been in place for a long time. Fortunately, the early signs indicate they indeed embrace the idea of innovation. On the other hand, they should demand the support they need to ensure the new initiatives will be successfully put in place.
Fourth, policy makers should use the evidence and results to guide the policy-making and -remaking process. Just as practitioners within community colleges need to be open-minded in implementing reform, policy makers need to be open-minded and honestly consider feedback to adjust the policy accordingly.
Fifth, funding agencies should be keenly attentive to what is really going on in educational reform and put their resources behind research on real-world problems. Instead of waiting for perfect research, they should strike a good balance in pursuing the rigor and relevance of the research to promptly respond to the needs on the ground. Otherwise, they may end up being empty-handed in the pursuit of connecting research, policy and practice.
Finally, credible and timely research has the potential to generate valuable evidence to inform policy and practice, and it can be accomplished by collaboration among researchers, practitioners, state agencies and funding organizations. After all, it is our shared responsibility to optimize the educational environment so that our students can succeed, reach their full potential and realize their dreams.

Students fare better by skipping remediation and instead taking statistics with an additional workshop, new CUNY study finds, fueling state remedial reforms.
States have chaotic lack of consistency in how they track college remediation, according to the Education Commission of the States, which seeks national standards.
A core purpose of remedial education is to provide all students with a real opportunity for college success, regardless of their skill level or academic background. Inside Higher Ed recently published opinion pieces with different takes on the best ways to design remedial programs. This exchange between Stan Jones of Complete College America and Hunter Boylan of the National Center for Developmental Education is a welcome sign. We are concerned, however, that an important consideration has been largely undervalued in the current conversation. Students assigned to remedial education in college are not a uniform group, and the colleges they attend are far from homogenous. Treating them as such masks important differences in opportunity and achievement due to differences in students' prior academic preparation, incoming skill level, age, race, income and status as first-generation college students.
Students who start in developmental education, particularly those at the lowest levels, face significant obstacles that frequently lead to gaps in educational opportunity and achievement down the road. While there has been considerable rhetoric about the existence of these gaps on the front end, there has been surprisingly little data used to show how the solutions being put forward today would actually address these inequities in the long run. Reform efforts that neglect to address these disparities only threaten to perpetuate them. We support extending the current conversation on reform efforts in developmental education to include four critical considerations:
1. An explicit focus on closing opportunity gaps for students. Opportunity gaps arise when students have different degrees of access to college programs in high school, and these opportunities vary according to a variety of factors, such as school quality and academic preparation. Opportunity gaps are the first step in closing achievement gaps nationwide, yet they are almost never referenced in reports of developmental education reform. Jobs for the Future's Early College Expansion report provides one example of how closing postsecondary opportunity gaps can be done, and highlights linkages between opportunity gaps and achievement gaps for various groups of students. Starting college while still in high school has been shown to have a significant impact on college enrollment, retention and success for a wide range of student populations. Expanding these opportunities to all high schools and all students, including at-risk students, is one of the most critical steps in closing achievement gaps and fulfilling the completion agenda.
2. An explicit focus on closing achievement gaps for students. The Lumina Foundation recently issued its annual report, A Stronger Nation Through Higher Education, which highlighted persistent college degree attainment gaps by race, with "black adults (ages 25-64) reporting 28 percent degree attainment, Native Americans representing 23 percent, and Hispanics representing with 20 percent attainment, compared to 59 percent for Asians and 44 percent for whites." Also, college participation rates still differ significantly based on income. "While 82.4 percent of potential students (of all races) in the top third of the income scale enroll in college, only 53.5 percent of those in the bottom third do so," The report said. Jamie Merisotis, Lumina's president, states, "As the nation's population becomes increasingly diverse, we must do more to address these troubling attainment divides … We cannot successfully meet our nation's future economic and social needs unless educational achievement opportunities are available to all Americans."
3. Comprehensive examples and disaggregated data showing how proposed solutions will address gaps in opportunity and achievement. This information is vital if the chasm between national goals and institutional implementation is to be bridged. Yet these details are notably missing from many national reports and publications. Large-scale solutions require local implementation, and many colleges and programs have little knowledge or information on achievement gaps by race, income status or academic ability for their own students. The 2011 report from MDRC, Turning the Tide: Five Years of Achieving the Dream in Community Colleges, illuminates this divide with the findings that "overcoming racial, ethnic and income achievement gaps was not a key goal at the majority of Round 1 colleges. Only eight college leaders made explicit attempts to raise awareness about those issues." As we move forward into an era of reform in developmental education, it is more important than ever to not only acknowledge, but to confront these gaps in educational attainment. Education Trust's Replenishing Opportunity in America provides helpful examples that show the impact of the solutions on various student groups. This should be the norm when it comes to national reports. Providing these details and data about the proposed solutions will both enrich the conversation and help to gain buy-in of stakeholders.
4. Examples of other successful models. Boylan and Jones both encourage looking to new, innovative models in our efforts to reform remedial education, and we agree. Mastery learning, for example, has been shown to not only close race and gender gaps; it has also been shown to provide a solid foundation for college success. Given the scarcity of examples and data surrounding achievement gaps in the current reports, additional models and examples should be sought out and welcomed into the conversation.
In conclusion, overcoming racial, ethnic and income achievement gaps should be a goal of all American colleges. We cannot achieve equity until we are able to identify and address inequity. Simply acknowledging achievement gaps does not close them. Putting forth models that have actually closed these gaps, complete with details and data, will help to get us there. Using data to illuminate and address gaps in student opportunity and achievement should be the focus of the national conversation and reform efforts in developmental education going forward.
John Squires is head of the mathematics department at Chattanooga State Community College. Angela Boatman is an assistant professor of public policy and higher education at Vanderbilt University.
His name was Bobby. He sat in the front row. He paid attention and asked smart questions; he engaged his classmates in debate. He wrote his first paper about pistol-whipping another 20-something in his trailer park over a drug deal. Bobby had so many stories. He wrote about rescuing a woman after she had been raped by a neighbor. He wrote about being homeless after he left gang life. He rode a beat-up bicycle five miles one way to the college in all types of Minnesota weather, then sat wet and shivering in the front row, his hoodie pulled over his head. In late November his girlfriend gave birth, and all we had left to remind us of Bobby was that empty front-row seat.
Next came TJ. He dressed like Eminem and sported white sneakers, floppy and unlaced. He smelled funny, an overpowering bodily odor that I would learn to recognize as meth recovery. His classmates avoided being put into groups with him; they gave him space around the table. Between classes, he chain-smoked in the courtyard. When he visited me during office hours, his hands shook from nicotine.
TJ wrote about dropping out of school to join a circus. He had worked as a carnie and developed a nasty addiction. TJ wrote intoxicatingly about his past; he wrote convincingly about his new, sober life. He had no license, so his grandmother drove him to and from campus. But she was afraid to drive in snow or sleet, so TJ missed a lot of class.
TJ brought me an early draft of his essay to read. He also brought along his notebook from last semester's remedial writing course, in which he had taken copious notes. He referred to those notes as he explained what he knew about paragraph structure, thesis placement, and the use of examples. We discussed voice shifts, tense shifts, and where to break up paragraphs. I encouraged him to visit the writing center, which I direct, and a tutor discussed his second draft with him.
The day I handed back these papers, he walked in late and slid into the back row. I walked to the rear of the room, still talking, and handed him a paper with a large blue A- circled at the top. I was already back at my teaching console, showing items on the course website, when TJ approached shyly and stopped me in mid-sentence by holding up his paper.
"Is this my grade?" he asked.
"Yes, TJ, that's your grade," I replied.
"Are you sure?" he asked.
"Yes, TJ, you earned that grade through hard work and good revision," I said, loud enough for the class to hear.
We all watched TJ walk, beaming, back down the aisle to his seat. TJ was my model developmental writing student. But three weeks later, he vanished from my class.
I have 60 to 80 developmental writing students in my classes each term; many of them lead precarious lives. They come to me, to college, to the hope of a brighter future, but they are wounded and vulnerable and unprepared. They lack self-confidence in general; they lack academic confidence in particular. And if one thing tips the scale out of balance in their precarious lives, they will disappear.
I lie awake at night, worrying about them. Not them collectively, as one-third are doing fine and another third are squeaking by. It's the final third, the vulnerable ones, that rob me of sleep.
As a lifelong educator, I used to worry about paper-grading burnout. Now that my teaching load is largely remedial English, I worry more about emotional burnout: the accumulated psychological toll of caring for so many.
Because the more I care about my students, the more they break my heart.
I wish that I knew less about them, that they could simply be students to me. But the best subject matter for fledgling writers is their own lives, and my students love to tell their stories. While my colleagues in other departments are feeding multiple choice bubble sheets into Scantron machines or ticking off points for math equations, I am scribbling comments in the margins of my students' papers. I am writing things like, "Do you know how to get a restraining order? Please ask me; I will help you" and "Here's the counseling #. Ask for Robert."
I am also writing letters and emails, to both these students and their advisers. I am seeking student services and support agencies for them. I am trying to put a finger in every hole in the dikes of their lives so that they can stay in my class, they can learn, they can move on to college level English and the rest of their lives.
I am teaching the disciplinary material which I was trained to teach, but I am also serving as a life coach, student success skills instructor, and amateur therapist, and I have no training in these areas.
Jeff is my latest heartbreak. The last day he came to my class was a much-publicized workshop day, and I was unhappy with him for arriving without his draft. When I asked him to retrieve it from his car, he stood up and nearly keeled over. He told us he felt funny, he felt tired; he slurred his words and the sentences trailed off. His classmates looked frightened. I told him to forget about the writing assignment and go see the school nurse. I wish so badly that I had walked him to the nurse's office myself. He never went there. But she followed up, on my request, and has since told me that he is "under the care of mental health professionals."
I will never forget the shock on TJ's face, followed by intense pleasure, when I confirmed his A-.
Am I the only person to ever recognize TJ's academic aptitude, to ever tell him that he did a good job? I hope not. But so many of my remedial students hover on the brink of "I can't do this" that I work mightily to find qualities to praise, to point out aptitudes, even as I tough-love them with sentence structure, journaling, grammar quizzes.
I cannot say that these students disappear from the world; rather, they cease to attend my class. They are still members of my community. I saw Bobby in Walmart last spring, looking as happy-go-lucky as ever, as his friends shoplifted.
TJ may be the man putting my child on a carnival ride at next summer's county fair. Even if my female student does get that restraining order I mentioned in the margin of her last draft, she could still become a city statistic, another assault victim or death.
I live with my students perpetually on my mind. I worry about the stories that they're not telling me. Sometimes, teaching them how to write college essays seems trite in comparison with the other challenges of their daily lives. I wish I could pour the knowledge into their brains, test them on it, and go home. I wish I could see them simply as students.
I know the way out of my dilemma. I could go back to teaching courses with names like Writing Poetry and Women's Perspectives.
I could teach the students who are college-ready, who passed that arbitrary, high-stakes placement test, or who have already schlepped their way through a remedial course like mine.
But then who would encourage John to get tested for dyslexia? Who would ask my Hmong student about her pregnancy, or my Somali student about her father's heart surgery? Who would watch the 30-year-old veteran's face for signs of anxiety and reassure him?
When I was a graduate student, teaching freshman comp, I used to walk home each day, asking myself one question: "Did I do a good job?"
At the end of a day teaching remedial English, I still ask myself one question, and it's always the same one: "Did I do enough?"

Baseline Service: Keeping the Consumer's Trust
There has been a lot of negative publicity of late about what is really inside the packaging of everything from food to drugs— and that includes the specific ingredients and quantity of contents. All of that information is there for you, the consumer, to see, but it's the commercial labs throughout the country that measure and analyze the products therein.
Since they have a vested interest in their products, the question is this: Who is monitoring the labs and the equipment they use?
Among the most prominent is a New Jersey company that specializes in monitoring and maintaining the accuracy of laboratory equipment — Baseline Service, LLC, headquartered in Bound Brook, NJ. If the equipment is reliable and accurate, then their findings, at least, should not be questioned. How the numbers might be juggled to cut costs or marketed to increase sales is another area of oversight.
Baseline Service itself is ISO-17025 certified by the Food & Drug Administration (FDA) and this accreditation is the gold standard in ensuring data that comes out of laboratories across the country is trustworthy. Describing itself as "experts in the FDA-regulated industries," its job, in general terms, is making sure that their client companies achieve the required level of regulatory compliance demanded by the FDA and other oversight agencies. Those regulated industries include healthcare, pharmaceutical, food, cosmetic and other consumer products.
Instrument calibration is critical on any equipment used for testing, measuring and analyzing, including everything from digital scales to spectrophotometers. The latter, by the way, essentially measures light that passes through, is reflected by or absorbed by another medium. Examples would be measuring the effectiveness of opaque solids or glass in preserving or protecting contents. And it gets much more complicated than that— and often beyond the purview of even well informed consumers.
Baseline Service has expanded its role even further by adding a well-known innovator, General Electric, as a provider among its array of high-tech equipment and services, recently announcing that it is a distributor for GE's Measurement & Control Division. The technologies include sensor-based measurement and its key fields are power generation, transportation, oil & gas and aerospace.
Testing and calibration of laboratory equipment, whether for pharmaceuticals or sustainable energy, plays a big role in protecting the health and safety of the public. If the equipment and instrumentation in U.S. labs is not accurate, it puts consumers at risk. GE Measurement & Control is known for the monitoring equipment used for analysis and monitoring in the gas and oil industry, but it is also gaining a niche in healthcare. Also prominent among Baseline Service's measurement products are Electrolab and Scinco.
It seems like a daunting role for a company that started out specializing in the service and support of High Pressure Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) equipment. But the demand was obviously there, as well as an escalating need for consumer protection through oversight over a multitude of products.
Baseline has been providing multi-vendor laboratory and process instrument support for more than 20 years. Its success is based on providing quality service by a staff of highly trained and experienced instrument, laboratory, and compliance personnel. That means they provide both the equipment and the people who know how to service and repair it.
Vince Gelsomino, the guy who started it all back in 1995, says it comes down to "experience, reliability, and cost savings." He believes these are the driving forces behind Baseline gaining the confidence and trust of some of the most prominent corporate entities in the country in making sure their products achieve critical regulatory compliance.

Heartwarming: Sucker Punch
- Rocket keeping Baby Doll company when the latter is crying during her first night at the asylum/brothel.
- Baby Doll telling Sweet Pea that it's her story and creating a distraction for Sweet Pea to escape the asylum.
- The dialogue exchanged between the Sweet Pea and the Wiseman/Bus Driver at the end of the film.
- The deleted scene (that will thankfully appear in the Extended Cut) where Baby Doll is brought before the High Roller. He reveals that he is not a monster, and would like to treat her like a wife, not a slave. He even offers to free her. Baby Doll is so touched that she offers herself to him freely.
- In its own way, the ending of the movie. Throughout the entire film, the girls are victimized and left with no one to protect them. After the lobotomy, we see that this is not necessarily the case. The lobotomist is concerned for Baby Doll's wellbeing, and hopes that she has found peace. Mrs. Gorski discovers Blue's crimes and quickly calls the police, having him arrested and presumably keeping him from ever hurting the girls again. Even the other orderlies become disgusted with Blue, with one of them suggested that they try running the place differently. After so much hardship, there finally are people who care for and defend Baby Doll.

Monoprice 8320 IEM
"I got some of these based on their crazy-good reputation. Even for the $6 I paid I feel ripped off. Worst pair I can remember. What in the world is everyone talking about? These are so gaudy looking, and feel cheaply put together. I could overlook those things if they sounded like everyone says. But they don't. I can't remember disliking the sound quality of an IEM this much. These are just..." --SethDove
Soundmagic E10
"The review below is for the E10M but the E10 is exactly identical, bar the extra mic. So lets begin. Packaging: Mine came in a nice little box with plenty of tips. I tried swapping out the stock ones with each one of them. There's also an adaptor that allows you to connect the earphones to a laptop or desktop with separate ports for head phone and mic...." --rajeevrn
Soundmagic E30
"This is an update to the review after living with several sets of these beauties for 1.5 years....I now have acquired 7 sets of the e30 with varying amount of time on them ranging from brand new to 500 hours and there is so much variation that I don't know which one to review here, but I will continue in part because I am enjoying them so much and would like to help others who are searching for..." --thelostMIDrange
Soundmagic PL11
"Build Quality: Not much to say than a solid IEM. The outside is "gunmetal" it looks like metal and feels like metal, but then again. I have been fooled before. The clip ...is just a clip, no deficiencies or poor moving around from it. The L shaped 3.5mm jack is also good. No weird wiggling parts, feels and looks solid. As it's an earphone, this section is generally good. The tip of the earphone..." --bowei006

Soundmagic Pl30 In-ear Headphones
" These and the PL50 are terrible quality buds, I went through both of them in less than 8 months. Both times they failed they left me in an awkward position where I really needed earbuds for working. Thus I would rate these as highly undesirable as I prize reliability and quality most. I would not waste your time with these.. " --jcotteri
PL50 In-ear Headphones
" Note: the star ratings are not absolute, but instead relative to its street price at this time (~$55) The pl50 represent a good value in budget IEMs, provided you like its particular sound signature and quirks. The pl50s have a tiny form factor. They are easy to insert and remove, and are more than flat enough to lie down in. Needless to say, they are among the most comfortable..." --JxK
Monoprice 109927 Enhanced Bass Hi-Fi Noise Isolating Earphones, Black
" Ok, I caved and bought 2 pair of these when I needed a mini to regular HDMI cable for a new laptop. They are impressive. I like the black color better than the silver too. One thing I quickly figured out is if you reverse them (R<-->L), the cable exits out the top, and you can then loop it over your ears. It seems to fit better this way. By flipping them..." --Neeky

Let's begin our seven reasons why not to believe Motley Fool - I'll Start.Today's article states, "Coeur d'Alene mines mostly for silver. It's one of the handful of stocks that have thrived after going through a reverse split, with Coeur's stock trading more than 40% higher after last year's 1-for-10 reverse. Since net income is projected to be roughly cut in half in its most recent quarter, it's not as if we can pin the tail of success on its fundamentals." - source, Motley FoolReason 1.ALASKA!
Rocky explained why or most likely inc will be cut in half when he broached the derivative, royalty and smelting agreements that effect cde's net. Now everyone celebrates Rochester news, as well. $33 mil up front to develope-just another of DW's efforts to keep excess cash flow from reaching bottom line for shareholders. Albeit, if all goes well (which isn't normally cde's mo) this investment will triple or quadruple in 4 years, but why now? Are we to believe management just found out about the upgrade news. Hard to swallow-much like some of the unabashed pumpers on this board.
In a business you look ahead,you don't look backwards. Only 10 years ago analysts made forward looking estimates based on the next 6-12 months.Rocky did the same. I hope you took note.
Since net income is projected to be roughly cut in half in its most recent quarter, it's not as if we can pin the tail of success on its fundamentals." No mention of a source.Ofcourse they build their articles on self-invented rumours. That is what they are paid for by the hedgefunds.Not only the fraudulous banksters, raters and non acting SEC-ers should go to jail, also the press people that have been colluding with them for so many years.
although I'm not a big fan of Motley (see Their guru analysis on nasdq rating cde), I believe this post is a pretty accurate synopsis.
collect all the articles from Motley Foolsno matter what happens, they have their bases coveredthey have articles at all extremesthey are a flaky, inconsistent source of misinformationOn Oct 8th, they said CDE will continue to go up, when in fact they've been sideways since the 3rd week of Sept.Its Sept 13 article was very bullish.Tomorrow's Monster Stock?=========================Oct 25Gold, of course, gets top billing in the news, but silver and its miners like Hecla Mining and Coeur d'Alene Mines (NYSE: CDE) have been enjoying the 30-year highs it recently hit. Not All That Glitters Is Gold=============================Oct 15It's true that some investors have looked beyond gold to its less heralded sidekick, silver. Thanks to 30-year highs for the metal, silver miners Hecla Mining (NYSE: HL - News) and Coeur d'Alene (NYSE: CDE - News) have both posted breakout gains of 30% or more just in the past couple of months, despite their vastly different financial performance lately, Tomorrow's Monster Stock=========================Oct 8The jobs numbers out this morning are going to help precious metals continue their run into record territory, and that means purveyors like Silver Wheaton, Hecla Mining (NYSE: HL), and Coeur D'Alene Mines (NYSE: CDE) will continue going up. The case for the Fed's second round of quantitative easing was just made a whole lot plainer.3 Stocks Breaking Out======================Sept 13while Coeur d'Alene Mines generated record metals sales in the second quarter, too. It's going to be adding more gold to the mix as its new Kensington gold mine is in production and beginning to fulfill a first-of-its-kind long-term supply contract with China National Gold Corp.
I put Motley Fool in the same catagory as Cramer. They change like the weather. Makes me wonder how they make any money ?

Definition of Houdini
- a sexual event in which, during sex from behind ("doggy style" or "anal"), a male feigns ejaculation by spitting saliva on their partner's back. In this (apocryphal) sex move, the penetrated person then conveniently turns their head towards the penetrator, at which time the penetrator ejaculates in the person's face.
I tapped this girl the other night from behind. I was feeling a little wicked, so I gave her a Houdini and now she won't speak to me.

Typical , one sided "good v Evil" rant from America. What is really needed is for more Americans to educate themselves about the history and politics of the ME. Quoting from the Bible/Koran/Torah is just an excuse for lack of real knowledge! America, read more books and then maybe the impact you have on the ME will be remembered for good reasons. To the people of Israel, Its my humble opinion that you would be better off reaching a comprehensive settlement with your neighbours (which may require some humility on both sides) and not releying on the "superpower" which is more interested in keeping the area volitile at your expense!

A yellow rose in Fitzgerald's Park in Cork. I made this photo a few weeks back and it had just rained, leaving nice little droplets of water on the delicate petals of the flower.
Tag: yellow
Doneraile Park Stream
Water flows through Doneraile Park on a cold November afternoon. Despite the late season, leaves still cling to the branches of nearby trees although they've turned golden-orange and make a beautiful covering on the ground.
I was quite surprised that the Wikipedia page for Doneraile didn't mention Elizabeth Aldworth, one of only three female members of a regular Masonic Lodge. Doneraile has quite a claim to fame!
I'll have to get a good shot of Doneraile Court next time I'm down there. The sun was setting behind the building on my last visit so an early trip is necessary. The house is also surrounded by fencing making access impossible but hopefully those repair works will be completed soon!
Late Autumn Leaves
The browns and yellows of Autumn grow darker as the rain soaks in and leaves disintegrate on the ground. A bench stands tall in the distance at Doneraile Park, Co. Cork.
The Yellow Helmet
A father picks up the yellow helmet dropped by his son in front of the Body Shop on Patrick's Street, Cork last Saturday. I was sitting on one of the marble blocks that pass as street furniture on our main thoroughfare. I had my camera ready to shoot when I saw them passing and within a heartbeat had snapped off a few shots.
I like this: King Corner – great sky and architecture shot. All in your hands…. – keep on smiling!

Awesome: Marvel Cinematic Universe
Phase One Phase Two
- Iron Man 3
- Thor: The Dark World
- Captain America: The Winter Soldier
- Guardians of the Galaxy
- Avengers: Age of Ultron
- Ant-Man
- The third Captain America film (before the Civil War storyline was announced) was set to go head-to-head with Batman v. Superman since both films shared a release date. Comic fans took to the internet to speculate which one would succeed and which would tank. Then the stronger than expected critical and commercial performances of The Winter Soldier and Guardians of the Galaxy caused Warner Bros. to blink and and shift Batman v. Superman, a film fans have been waiting decades to see, to an emptier spot on the calendar so that they wouldn't have to enter into direct competition with the MCU juggernaut.
- The Phase Three announcement set the internet on fire.
- Characters fans have been clamoring for cinematic adaptations of are finally going to be seen on the big screen. Kevin Feige made a point of saying that the direction the MCU is going is a direct result of fans speaking out.
- Kevin Feige originally announced that Captain America 3 would be subtitled Serpent Society to audience approval before feigning buyer's remorse and saying that he wanted to change the title right then and there to Captain America: Civil War, meaning that the MCU will have a major crossover event outside of the Avengers films. The audience roared in excitement before taking it Up to Eleven when Robert Downey, Jr. and Chris Evans suddenly walked out to the Avengers theme blaring and performed a brief skit.
- Then Chadwick Boseman was announced as the actor who will play Black Panther and joined Downey and Evans on stage, where Downey and Evans proceeded to play Roshambo to determine which side Black Panther will be on in the upcoming Civil War movie.
- Commenters noted that even though most of the announcements were little more than title cards with a bit of music, they worked because Marvel Studios presented them in front of an audience of fans and made it clear that the new slate was structured as such because it was what the fans wanted. AMC Movie Talk compared it with the DC slate announcement, which used simple white text in front of a black background and was made at a stockholders meeting.
- The franchise as a whole is currently the number one highest grossing franchise.
- Spider-Man is now a part of the MCU. Marvel Studios was able to work out a deal with Sony and share the rights to the character.
- This celebration of Phases 1 and 2 as a whole. The fighting, the running, the highlights, the sheer awesomeness from every movie up to Guardians-it really shows how much has been achieved in the most Badass way possible. Oh, and the Winter Soldier is shown as part of the Avengers, if in future.

How Steven Spielberg Made Millions Off 'Star Wars' After A 1977 Bet With George Lucas
AP/Wally Fong
Spielberg got 2.5% of "Star Wars" earnings after Lucas was worried it wouldn't be a success.
A long time ago on a film set far, far away, two directors made a friendly bet about a small space-fantasy film called "Star Wars."
Steven Spielberg would go on to win the bet and take millions of dollars from George Lucas over time.
Here's how the out-of-this-world wager came to be.The Troubles Of "The Star Wars"
In the mid-1970s, science-fiction films weren't very popular.
1968's "2001: A Space Odyssey" led the way for the genre but made just $56 million at the box office. So when a young director named George Lucas was trying to sell a script called "The Star Wars," based on "Flash Gordon" space serials, not many studios were eager to make it.
It wasn't until Lucas took his script to 20th Century Fox that the film finally received backing — but even then it was more because of the success of Lucas' previous film, "American Graffiti."
The challenges didn't stop there. A delayed, over-budget production caused the troubled director to visit a friend shooting his own sci-fi film in Mobile, Ala.
That friend was Steven Spielberg and the film was his 1977 classic, "Close Encounters of the Third Kind."The Bet
According to an interview with Spielberg for Turner Classics Movies , Lucas came to the set of "Close Encounters" out of sorts after problems with his passion project. Needing to recharge, Lucas spent a couple of days on set.
Troubles with the production caused Lucas to believe that "Star Wars" was going to completely bomb.
"George came back from 'Star Wars' a nervous wreck," Spielberg said. "He didn't feel 'Star Wars' came up to the vision he initially had. He felt he had just made this little kids' movie."
After a few days, Lucas realized something else: Spielberg's "Close Encounters" was going to be so much more successful than "Star Wars." So much more that he felt like making a bet with Spielberg.
Spielberg would later say:
"He said, 'Oh my God, your movie is going to be so much more successful than 'Star Wars'! This is gonna be the biggest hit of all time. I can't believe this set. I can't believe what you're getting, and oh my goodness.' He said, 'All right, I'll tell you what. I'll trade some points with you. You want to trade some points? I'll give you 2.5% of 'Star Wars' if you give me 2.5% of 'Close Encounters.' So I said, 'Sure, I'll gamble with that. Great.'"
